1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Background: Reflux esophagitis (RE), a common gastroesophageal reflux disease characterized by esophageal mucosal inflammation, is closely associated with gut microbiota dysbiosis and metabolic abnormalities. The glutamine-glutamate metabolic pathway regulates inflammation and mucosal barrier function, but its role in RE and association with gut microbiota remain unclear. This study aimed to characterize gut microbiota and serum metabolites in RE patients via integrated multi-omics (focusing on the gut microbiota-glutamine axis), and verify the activation status of this pathway in RE inflammatory models and the anti-inflammatory effect of its targeted inhibition. Methods: RE patients and healthy controls (HCs) were enrolled. Fecal metagenomic sequencing and serum untargeted metabolomics (LC-MS/MS) were performed to identify differential gut microbiota and serum metabolites between the two groups, followed by Pearson correlation analysis to explore their associations. Results: RE patients showed significant differences in gut microbiota diversity and composition compared with HCs, with Conclusion: RE patients exhibit significant gut microbiota dysbiosis (dominated by
